I picked up some backing for this quilt recently,
And spray basted it with my favourite homemade
spray!
I chose to quilt it with a curved line found on my
machine's stitch options.

I already had some pretty orange binding ready, so
once I was started, it was finished in no time!

grandbaby, due in March!

I love the orange border, and the orange binding, plus the perfect backing fabric! Great finish.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIt is fabulous, Suz. I love the colors and I am sure it will be treasured. Do you share your recipe for your basting solution?
ReplyDeleteSo wonderful...u did an awesome job
ReplyDeleteI love it!
ReplyDeleteHello Suz,
ReplyDeletethis is a very nice Foxy Quilt. I like the colour combination.
Happy sewing , Doris :o)
It looks great! Well done. I think I need to make another fox.
ReplyDeleteThis is sure cute! That backing is just too perfect. And don't I love seeing that you're using that homemade basting spray. I have hesitated to use it when sandwiching a big quilt, but this one seems like the right size for it. So glad it's working for you. And that quilting - it's called the serpentine stitch - is really good with the quilt. You know the quilt will be well-used and washed, so you wouldn't want to put anything more than basic quilting into it. You did a super job. And you're done early too. That's most impressive!
ReplyDeleteWell THIS is super cute! Perfect backing too!
ReplyDeleteIt was worth waiting for the backing - a perfect match.
ReplyDeleteIt has turned into a delightful quilt and looks great in all your photos.
perfect for a new baby.
And on that basis, congratulations on the baby news. That is so exciting. Not long to wait!
Such happy news--and you gave it to us at the very end of the post!!! Congratulations, Grandma!! I'm sure that she will love this, as it is so cute with the woodland trees and the fox. I love all your "beauty shots" and think they are perfect for showing us your terrific quilt. Congratulations on a wonderful finish!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your big news!!! How exciting! This quilt is terrific! The backing fabric and binding are perfect for the lovely quilt top. Your photo shoot is spot on as well!
ReplyDeleteSo sweet! You did a lovely job.
